Hunter Jones graduated from Wichita State in 2018 with a BFA in Performing Arts - Dance. After graduation she moved to the Kansas City area where she has been a company dancer for City in Motion Dance Theater. Hunter also was the instructor and choreographer for their children’s dance theater. A couple months after moving to Kansas City she became one of the founding members for Cerca Trova Dance. Hunter has performed with both companies throughout the greater Kansas City area both on main stages and in small galleries.
Since graduation, Hunter has also obtained certifications in yoga, nutrition, and personal training. On the weekends you can find her teaching yoga but during the week she dedicates her time to helping clients reach their fitness goals in a fun, effective, and efficient manner. During Covid Hunter started her own nutrition coach business and recently decided to combine it with her personal training business.
As a portfolio artist working in various arts sectors, Hunter is a part of Heritage Christian Academy’s fine arts program and teaches a dance education elective course to middle school kids during the school year. She also teaches for the OKLA dance intensive which includes teaching at regional conventions.
Most recently Hunter started teaching dance fitness classes at a studio, AKT, in Leawood, Kansas. The classes are all backed by science and were created as a workout regimen for dancers. They are fun, work up a sweat, and keep her doing what she loves!
Hunter’s overall career includes performing, teaching, and helping others reach their goals in fitness and overall health. When she is not working, you will find Hunter playing with her dog Luna, reading, resting, or exploring everything KC has to offer!
